As of the end of May 2025, the side road from Lungern train station to the wrestling arena on Brünig Pass is paved throughout. Only 20 meters at the Chäppeli parking lot are still compact gravel. For those who value their lives, take this route and not the Brünig road (N/A8) over the pass.

This side road to Brünig has a short stretch of gravel, about 200m-300m, the rest is asphalt or concrete. No problem going up and down with a gravel bike or mountain bike. Racers with 30 or 28 inch wheels should also be fine, but probably not with an aero racer. But it is certainly a good alternative to the main pass road.

In summer, there's a lot of traffic over Brünig. Those who prefer a quieter climb can take this route, but you'll have to push your road bike a short distance over gravel – or if you're not afraid of getting a flat tire, you can just ride over it. Another advantage: the scenery is much more scenic than the main road.
But be sure to take the main road downhill.

Hard road ride. Very good fitness required. Mostly well-paved surfaces and easy to ride.
